this is what i said in another topic :

bad things happen in every country. some in more countries thant others, especially when you have poverty and corruption. i know i have seen many things in the news and documentaries about the dominican republic. we should not glorify the and breath more life into the the deases but instead find a way where we make our lifes better. no one country is better than the other dominicans will always regret the haitian invasion and haitians will regret dominicans prosperity and better half of the island. but this is what god has given and proposed so we must learn to do our best, live the best life that we can by always wanting to improve and help others improve.

the reason is some people enter this site with negative comments. only wanting to fight instead of trying to find a solution the problem. you and others are the same. and no one is perfect. some are better off than others only because of circumstance and not because they are really better. Haiti and dominicans neither are better than the other.





the reason is too that alot of these guys come on the net to try to bully people because they cant do it in person. Because they dont have big ones man.

HAITINATION SAID
[QUOTE=Dominicanation]
[B]I was taking a shjt today and I was thinking cause this the time when I have my best thoughts. I was thinking well the Dominican Republic is ahead of Haiti in many things, but yet they are not too far ahead the Dominicans have double nationality which means that the best and the brightest Dominicans are capable of changing policies in their country but yet again they are not that far ahead of Haiti. NOW IMAGINE IF HAITI HAD ITS BEST AND BRIGHTEST INVOLVED IN THEIR GOVERNMENT. Think about it now. If the Dominicans have their top dogs working in their government and this is all they can come up with well then what if Haiti had its best. How will things be? Do you see my point? I would assume that the majority of the Dominican parliament and policy makers were educated abroad while the majority of the Haitian policy makers are just regular guys with no Harvard or Yale degrees now imagine if Haiti finally decided to call upon its children. In other words Haiti is BAD and Dominicans are a little better BUT HAITI IS NOT EVEN TRYING but you Dominicans are at your best. What if?

Below you will find a reason why Haiti will [B]NEVER[/B] be better than The Great Dominican Republic.

Port-au-Prince.– Thousands of Haitians marched last week in Port-au-Prince and other cities to celebrate the first election of former president Jean-Bertrand Aristide and call for his return from exile in South Africa. [
"We want our leader to come back to his country. He's the only one who cares about our situation. It's Aristide we want and not (President Rene Preval)," chanted a group of youths holding banners over their heads.
The demonstrators, mostly poor country and city residents, wore T-shirts with portraits of Aristide, known affectionately as "the little priest," who shunned the cloth to rise under a populist banner to political power.
Former officials under Aristide's two governments also took part in the street marches in Cap-Haitien, the country's second-largest city.

Now imagine, if this is Haiti's only hope. Do you really think that your argument is valid?. I think not, You know this, and it's killing you.

Haha no, our politicians are not our brightest dominicans. There are some bright politicians, but most aren't very bright lol. I think they shouldn't allow anyone to become a politician like it is the case today. In this case yes, discrimination would be a good thing. Only the brightest and best please!

Rich people from Haiti move away from there and never go back. Rich dominicans stay in DR and never leave thats the difference.

That's not completely true, there are still those living in plenitude in enclosed areas and not even so much in the face of the poor like many have said.

RE: Why Haiti is better than DR

I guess the problem with haiti is that its lands are hilly and barren...living on a rock hell.....in the DR its fertile and can provide for its people.

i can see all the problems from haiti comes from that situation...(apart form corruption, dictatorship, etc., which the DR has/had).

i can see what the guy who started the thread is trying to say...although his explanations should not be taken literally but just to provide a 'setting'

if haiti had all that the DR has would it be better that the DR is now?

i think so....cant say if WAY better than the DR now.

but if they can survive on nothing and have crap government and survive on nothing again and still manage to make it....i can imagine they would shine given what the DR has.

even their GOURDE currency is almost equal to the peso...which i dont know how.
(1 gourde =1.15 pesos)

i think the guy who started the thread was talking about POTENTIAL in fantasy situation.
like spiderman vs superman

I pretty much doubt that, jm, cuz' their levels of corruption are (and always have been) way worse than anything that our politicos might come up with. Granted, our politicos' misdemeanors receive more coverage, but, is it not an indicative of how bad things are over there the fact that the haitian reporters can't give themselves the luxury of covering ALL the underground dealings that happen over there without suffering the same fate of the late Jean Dominique in the process? Just think about it, compared with the haitian politicos, the dominican ones are glorified boy-scouts, and that's saying something!!
